The Kronan is a slightly updated replica of the 1940's Swedish Army bicycle, very robust construction, fully equipped with rack and lights, and heavy (nearly 50 lbs), available in single and 3 speed models...$500 and $600. Front frame mounted rack available makes the Kronan a very useful beast of burden.
